JNF NEVER SHOWED ANY STRENGTH IN PROPERTY MATTERS

I find myself forming a low opinion of the JNF for being almost virtually non-existant:
(IsraelNN.com) The Jewish National Fund is outraged at – but not denying – allegations that it has effectively forfeited land to the Arabs worth millions of dollars and done little to prevent squatters from building upon it.

The Jewish National Fund is scandalized by allegations published by Arutz Sheva that it has not booted Arabs who have constructed communities on some 320 acres (1,300 dunams) of Jewish-owned land in the Jerusalem area. WorldNetDaily's Aaron Klein, who first reported the matter, found out that the land on which Arabs built dozens of apartment complexes and a United Nations school was entrusted to the JNF for settlement by Jews. Parts of the land, writes Klein, are cut off from the rest of Israel by the separation fence.

The JNF has not acted effectively against this land grab.
I don't think they ever did act effectively against any forfeit of land. If not, then what good is their being in business? (via Israpundit.)
